“Classic Returns!….In this expanded edition of the 1978 original, Conway and Siegelman continue their study of the altering of the American psyche, which has led to the rise of religious cults, super Christian sects, private citizen militias, and other phenomena that dominate today’s headlines. Probably more timely now than when first published, this is an important title for academic and public libraries.” – Library Journal “Their book is judicious, sensible, well-researched and very frightening.” – New York Times Book Review “It is a book of investigative reporting at its best.” – New York Post “What Woodward and Bernstein were to Watergate, Conway and Siegelman may well be to the cults.”

I believe the large majority of body language information available is either impractical or over complicated. Who really wants to be thinking about every tiny detail, especially when the details are misaligned to you as a person!

This course is about molecular evolution – the evolution of DNA, RNA, and protein molecules. The focus is on computational methods for inferring phylogenetic trees from sequence data, and the course will give an introduction to the fundamental theory and algorithms, while also giving the student hands-on experience with some widely used software tools. Since evolutionary theory is the conceptual foundation of biology (in the words of Theodosius Dobzhansky: “Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution”), what you learn on this course will be relevant for any project you will ever do inside the life sciences. A phylogenetic tree will almost always help you think more clearly about your biological problem.

This book presents the hotly debated question of whether quantum mechanics plays a non-trivial role in biology. In a timely way, it sets out a distinct quantum biology agenda. The burgeoning fields of nanotechnology, biotechnology, quantum technology, and quantum information processing are now strongly converging. The acronym BINS, for Bio-Info-Nano-Systems, has been coined to describe the synergetic interface of these several disciplines.
